THEMES FOR THE WEEK:
By Trevor Davis

April 25, 2011
1. How Many Kings And Kingdoms Are In The Kingdom Of God?
A. The answer is simple. One. One King. One God. One Lord. One body that is the true Church of Jesus Christ.
The complication is when men seek to be king and create their own kingdom whether professing faith in Jesus or not.

B. I cringe over those who insist on using God instead of serving God. Woe, woe, woe unto those who are still refusing to crucify their own vain self-agendas. Woe unto those who still are seeking to build their own institution. It is a stench to God as well as to those who are following Him.

C. Listen all, the Lord is the Lord and there is no other. He is building His Church and His kingdom is at hand. Repent and believe the gospel. Put away all vanity and sin and serve the LORD in the fear and love of God. King Jesus Christ surely is coming soon, but first, He will dismay all His enemies. Either fall on the rock, which is the cornerstone of Jesus' lordship, or you will have the rock of His Lordship fall upon you and grind you to powder. This word was spoken to the religious leaders at Jesus' first coming. And now we are at the brink of His return in glory and power. It is only the Lord Himself that is to be exalted and placed on a pedestal. No man. No institution. Only the Lord is to be exalted. One King. One Kingdom. One Spirit. One Body. One baptism. This is the baptism into the Lord's death and a baptism into His body. Are you in Him? Are you in His Kingdom?

D. You can only be in the Kingdom if you are subject to the King.

Luke 20:17-20 17And he beheld them, and said, What is this then that is written, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner? 18Whosoever shall fall upon that stone shall be broken; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder. 19And the chief priests and the scribes the same hour sought to lay hands on him; and they feared the people: for they perceived that he had spoken this parable against them. 20And they watched him, and sent forth spies, which should feign themselves just men, that they might take hold of his words, that so they might deliver him unto the power and authority of the governor

E. Note many things in these texts: Note the religiosity. Note the pretentious way they would act as 'just' men. They perceived that Jesus the righteous was speaking against them, but instead of repenting they continued in their opposition to Him. Then they continued to conspire against Him and lie about Him to the political world of Rome. This will come to pass again. Prepare for this as the erring religious ones accuse the righteous lamb servants of Christ before the emerging Beast System of the New World Order. They reject the true servant of God Jesus but they act religious using the things of God as in the scriptures...

Matthew 21:42-46 42Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes? 43Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof. 44And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder. 45And when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard his parables, they perceived that he spake of them. 46But when they sought to lay hands on him, they feared the multitude, because they took him for a prophet

F. Note above how the erring religious system 'fears people' and not God whom should be feared! Everything the false religious system does is on this plane of fearing man and not God. It is a superficial plane based on appearances. They profess to love God but oppose Him by their doctrines, deeds and spirit. The religion of the antichrist is humanitarian. It will appear on the surface as doing good works but the works are dead since they are not of faith originating out of love for God and obedience to His voice. Run for your life into the Kingdom of God!

2. Seeking True Unity And Oneness With God The Father Through His Son Jesus Christ.
A. The marvel of the gospel is that it makes fellowship with God possible. Not only in the manner of Adam and Eve before the fall in the garden, but what God has provided in the gospel is a unity and oneness through His Son Jesus. As the Father was one with His Father, so too are those who have abiding faith in Him called to be one with Him. Jhn 17:11 John 17:21 John 17:22 John 17:23 Eph 4:13 Eph 4:1-7

B. Our unity and oneness with the Lord brings a peace and joy that is unspeakable. We are led by God through His Spirit. We have received the Spirit of God that we may know freely the things given to us of God. 1Corinthians 2:10-16

C. We may experience the unity and find ourselves renewed in Christ and find a harmony within our being that directs our steps into paths of righteousness for His name's sake. We are no more mere men or as donkeys that have no understanding, but we are easily moved by the Spirit of God and directed by Him. These coming days are going to be magnificent for those in unity and oneness with the Lord for He is going to be magnified in a wonderful way.

D. Put the opposing forces of the flesh and mind upon the cross. Crucify all of that which is an enemy to the cross of Christ and walk in newness of life. This is our call in these last days.

3. How Much Can “I Get Away With”, or, “Seeking To Be Pleasing To the LORD”.
A. Those in religion always want to be told what they can do and what they can't do. They then find ways around the rules so they can do their own thing. Not so in the Kingdom. We are told by the apostle Paul that all that do such things of the flesh will not inherit the Kingdom of God and Christ. Galatians 5:13-26 Very Important!

B. As we repent and have faith in Jesus, we walk in the crucified life which also enjoys the quickened power of the Holy Spirit. We love the Lord and seek to please Him. We are so careful not to grieve Him since we love Him. This is a love walk.

C. God is able to cleanse our heart and recreate us in righteousness in Jesus Christ. Look to Him for this. He is the Potter, we are the clay. It is the Father's will to form you into the image of His dear Son who came humbly and was obedient to the point of death. May God change all of those who call on Him in sincerity to be changed into the self-same image as they behold the Lord. 2Cor 3:17-18


4. What Is Prophecy? What It Is Not.

J. Prophecy reveals God to the unbelievers.
K. Prophecy is a gift that should be “coveted” for others' edification.

II What Prophecy is NOT:
A. Prophecy is not prognostication.
B. Prophecy is not of the flesh.

H. Prophecy is not for financial gain.

J. Prophecy is not contrary to God, Jesus, the Spirit or Scripture.


5. Open Push For Global Economy.
A. This continues on the news daily by world leaders, corporations and the “rich men”.

B. This is the call that will make the Beast System and its leader so palatable for the masses.

C. As God continues to put in the hearts His will the ruling powers-that-be will continue the destruction of the world's current economic system in order to bring about the system of the Beast, a new world financial order that includes the worship of the Beast, its mark, with all of its blasphemous ways. Blueprint for the Beast System, the new one world economic system, and world religion. (Revelation 13)


6. Pressure Manifesting Upon The Masses. “Tipping Point”.
A. Pressure due to rise in costs and econ demise: http://www.cnbc.com/id/42704213


7. Who Is In Your 'Company'? 1Corinthians 5
A. What Apostle Paul thought about 'seeker-friendly Christianity': Hanging with the immoral, fornicators, covetous-idolaters, railers, drunkards, the wicked persons...

B. “ I wrote you an epistle not to company fornicators”...1Cr 5:9 ¶ I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators:
Does the church world read this? Are the people warned about this? George Barna's stats show there is no difference between the world and the Church world. But there is a difference between the Church and the world according to Jesus Christ. And that is what all must be concerned about.

8. More On Infrastructure Of The Beast Being Implemented.
A. (See Themes for the Week in earlier months--”Beast System infrastructure is being implemented now and the transfer of the flag will come later...per this author what the Lord has revealed)

B. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703983704576277101723453610.html?mod=WSJ_hp_MIDDLETopStories
Another story on phones tracking user's travels and other data being archived.

C. The Devil imitates God who sees, hears and knows everything. Thus the Devil's children are attempting to be like their god.

D. “D” for dumb. The “dumb” stupid people think if they aren't doing anything wrong then what does it matter if everything is documented and tracked? They are foolish in trusting man and not God. God is benevolent and desires blessing and good for people. The Devil is malevolent in that he is a liar, murder and a thief. Whom will you trust? Choose your god.

9. Be Ye Children In Malice: Wise to be righteous, fools to do evil.
A. I woke up one morning thinking about the story of the child who told the Emperor had no clothes. There was a story that the Emperor was naked but everyone acted as though he were clothed until this one child refused to project the lie and myth even to the Emperor. O to be a child like this! God is calling us to be sincere and child-like so we may please Him in His Kingdom. No one shall enter in unless they humble themselves as a child. Children prior to the corruption of a culture had been generally without malice and guile. This is what God is calling us to be like. We are to be without offense unto the day of Christ, without malice, guile and deceit and all the people-pleasing dynamics that people exhibit.

B. Be ye children without malice...

1Cor 14:20  Brethren, be not children (pideon---little infant boys) in understanding: Howbeit in malice (wanting bad to happen to others, wickedness) be ye children (infants babes), but in understanding be men.

This is a great text. 

There are those who are wise to do evil but fools in doing right.  God wants the very opposite.  Apostle Paul is urging us to grow up in Christ and our knowledge and understanding, but in regards to malice, to be like infants, which have no understanding or development.  Praise God.

These texts came in context of speaking about Christ our Passover.  When this was written, it was customary to maintain the Feasts of God.  Passover was the beginning of the Feast of Unleavened Bread.  We have Paul breaking this down for us in a spiritual manner that we may properly walk in the ways of the Lord.  We are to keep the Feast of Passover, yes, for it is Jesus.  But not in “old leaven”, neither with leaven (iniquity) of malice and wickedness, but with unleavened (no leaven—no permeating evil) of sincerity (purity---without wax) and truth.  (so keeping the feast of Passover is not a religious thing.  It is spiritual in Christ)

Obviously this contrasts the religious system of Judaism that kept holidays and rituals with traditions and commandments of men but were unregenerated from the heart.

This is why we are to be like infants in wickedness/malice, but grown men in our understanding.  There is to be no falsehood or hypocrisy in us as we are of that which is unleavened of sincerity and truth.  Jesus is unleavened.  He is sinless.  He is the True Vine and we are the branches.  The Lord has called us to abide in Him and His nature and fruit will flow through our lives to the glory of the Father.

10. Woe To The Teachers Leading Children Into Corruption.
A. In recent days I was pondering a mega-church in my area and how they would be initiating the children in the heathen motif of sun worship and the goddess Ishtar with her fertility rites. This is known of course as Easter and can easily be researched if you have not yet done so. How in the world did the worship traditions to foreign deities enter into the religion of Christianity? What an abomination!

Anyway, I was thinking about this and how grieved I was considering the fact that these leaders would have to stand before the Lord Jesus Christ and give account one day. I was fearing for their sake, being grieved and horrified by this. That same day I received in the mail a placard inviting me to an Easter egg hunt at this mega-church in town. Well, that I thought invited me to write them an urge them to repent of this tradition they are promoting and the multi-complexity of this practice of incorporating worship to God and Jesus Christ with the defiling customs of the heathen “Christianized” for the sake of pleasing the culture.

B. I itemized in a document the areas of scriptural concern for these leaders to consider.

Haggai 2:10-14 (Principle of defilement) Touching the unclean or common defiles what is set-apart or holy. You can not 'Christianize' paganism, idolatry, worldliness, or the flesh. (Flesh and blood do not inherit the Kingdom of God. Flesh is a nature that must be crucified)

1. First and foremost is the failure to represent Jesus Christ before the world and the community.

2. We will all stand before the Lord to give account of our words and deeds.

3. This is especially true for those who have stood as leaders and teachers over God's heritage.

4. Is it not your responsibility to make disciples of Jesus?

5. The Lord is looking for disciples not crowds of unconvicted unregenerated people of the culture.

6. Why would you not sanctify the Lord in obeying His Word in making disciples?

7. Why have you corrupted the children in teaching them the ways of the world?

8. Why would you mislead the children in promoting the ways of the heathen as evidenced by “Easter”?

9. Repent of this. Clear yourselves of this evil and make amends.

10. Sanctify the Lord. Tell the people to repent before the Lord and put away the ways of the world.

11. This email is in response to your “church's” mail-out to keep Easter and have an Easter egg hunt.

11. Gordon Brown: Ex-Prime Minster Of The UK Calls For A Global One World Economy, System, Ethics...
A. Ex-prime minister of the UK, Gordon Brown, calls for a New World Order and revitalized institutions such as the World Bank and United Nations. Here is another world leader calling for this new world government. He states that the institutions that exist today are antiquated and must be updated for the new age. He is calling for a new global ethic. He said that existing institutions fail to meet needs and there must be a new global citizenship. He also disparaged separate nation states. He was speaking at the university at Edinburgh. Brown believes that global problems will be solved by global solutions. This is important to note since there are rumors he may be the next leader of the IMF. Strauss Kan may go to France and there is talk to create a new global currency.

12. Strange Porridge Of Religious Leaders Uniting In Spirit Of Antichrist For The Sake Of Politics.
A. I have been writing for some time about various leaders of Christendom uniting and forming alliances for political carnal reasons. These have joined in fellowship with others for the sake of notoriety or 'saving America' at the expense of compromising the scripture. It shows they are more concerned for a temporal nation the United States than an eternal Kingdom that is of God. They chose the flag over the cross.

B. There is a similarity between the political goals of these religious leaders and the political leaders. Peter Drucker, who was not a Christian, mentored Rick Warren of Saddleback Church. Drucker promoted Fabian Socialist agendas as well as Tony Blair that now is in league with Rick Warren. There are many of this political religious movement that are bringing in damnable heresies that deny the Lord. There are others who are so called prophets and apostles who stand in league with these same promoters of a 'Third Way' or 'Third Wave' that stems from Socialist writings.

C. The way is forging now for the preparation for the antichrist among the religious masses of Christianity. Because so many leaders were tempted by Satan and put on pedestals and promised success, wealth and pleasure, they have become blinded and have drifted off course of the gospel. Now they are declaring a false gospel, a false message, and while they promote liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption just as scriptures warn.

D. The Lord is letting the wicked lead whom they will so as to clean His House. If people are drawn away because they have not held to Jesus as their Head, and they have not studied the scriptures, nor, have they prayed before the Lord, then they will be blindly following the blind guides and both will fall into the ditch.

E. This is a strange brew indeed. A pot is simmering with all the rotten flesh of the world and the Church world. Flesh is flesh. Spirit is spirit. That which is born of God is of God. That which is of man is of man. We all have to decide what we will be.


13. The Gospel Of Mark And Jesus' Call To Hear.
A. The Gospel of Mark reveals Jesus continuing urging, “Let him that has ears hear”. Several times Jesus ministered this vital aspect of hearing and receiving with an open heart.

B. Jesus stated that to the degree one hears is the degree that they will be given to hear. If a person is not open to hear, then even that which they have will be taken away. Take heed to what you hear. Let yourself be open to reproof and correction by the Word of God. Do not despise it for it is the way of life. But the fool despises reproof and loves death.

Mark 4:23-25 23If any man have ears to hear, let him hear. 24And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you: and unto you that hear shall more be given. 25For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he hath.


14. The Ministry Of The Kingdom Of God. “What have ye?”, asks Jesus.
A. I was reading the gospel of Mark this week and noticed the two miracles of Jesus in feeding the multitudes that came to hear Him. I was struck afresh how when the people were hungry for food, having feasted on His Words of spirit, Jesus desired to meet that physical need too.

B. The disciples asked if they should send the people away so they could go 'buy their food from the villages and towns'. Jesus answered, “No”.

C. The disciples asked if they should go and buy food for them. Jesus answered, “No”.

D. Jesus asked them, “What have ye?”. This is what the Lord Jesus performed the miracle of multiplying loaves and fishes is from the small amount that the disciples had available. The Lord Jesus took that small amount of food and blessed it and had them distribute to the multitudes. Not only were the people fed, but they were filled. And, there was much food left over.

E. Ladies and gentlemen: This is what the Lord is preparing His faithful to believe for in these coming days of darkness. As we submit to Him, and are serving Him proclaiming His Word and Kingdom, He will perform many mighty signs and wonders in our midst that will bless, help and reveal His mighty power to those around us. We are to be available to the working of God as He shows that He cares for our deepest needs as people. He is the Good Shepherd.

F. We in the United States of America have become so self-reliant. God is now confounding the gods of this nation. He alone is God of Gods. As God's righteous judgments unfold, He will be found of those who are seeking Him. He will reveal Himself that He is the Lord that provides, heals and delivers. He is our all in all. We are to repent of having other gods and relying on other things such as our own jobs and abilities. Surely, we can trust nothing but the LORD Himself for all the other things that man has put his trust in will come to naught. Banks, jobs, homes, accomplishments and abilities will be as nothing in these coming days. Our life is truly from the Lord and we can either love Him as our Living God or we can chose to despise Him. Regardless of this fact, God is the same and He does not change. Why not enjoy Him as He truly is?


15. Jesus Marveled At Their Unbelief---No-faith; Unfaith.
A. Jesus marveled at their unbelief. This is a sad thing. Without faith, it is impossible to please God. But there is so much unbelief which is really unfaith or no faith. The absence of faith is unbelief.

B. Unbelief and its results...


16. The Ministry Of Preparing The Bride In Purity For Her Bridegroom.
A. I awoke one day this week aware that what I have been writing may be criticized by some as though I were being critical. I then pondered that true ministry is preparing the Bride of Christ for the Bridegroom. She has to be pure as He is pure. Jesus is not going to marry an unholy bride that is dating other gods. He is not interested in a bride that is a harlot lover of the world. His Bride loves Him and is eagerly preparing and awaiting Him. I received a confirmation of this from another follower of Jesus this very morning regarding how ministries are purifying the Bride of Christ.

B. John the Baptist ministry was preparing the people for the coming of the Lord. He was calling for godly sorrow repentance that was demonstrated by godly fruit. He was outside the religious system declaring the Word of the Lord. He was faithful to the Lord and exalted the very act of God which was the coming of Jesus. We are now in the same vein as the coming of the Lord draws nigh!

The spirit of Elijah and the ministry of John the baptist as a parallel for today.


17. Apparent Disunity For One World Order: B.R.I.C.S. (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa)
A. BRICS alliance non US to replace USD http://finance.yahoo.com/banking-budgeting/article/112563/BRICS-move-dollar-aside-marketwatch?mod=bb-budgeting%20&sec=topStories&pos=3&asset=&ccode=

B. This shows there may be an alliance that will wage world war soon over commodities and the demise of the USA economy.

C. The scriptures are clear that there will be world war in the last days. There will be many people that die worldwide due to war.

D. It may be that after the next World War that the continued establishment of a world government will continue. Keep in mind, that there is already a world government with the United Nations that also formed after a World War.

18. God Desires To Use His Individual Followers Not Institutions Of Man!
A. Seriously, God desires to use you as you submit to Him and go forth in the name of Jesus. God has not ordained institutions of man as His representative. He has called people, individuals, that have faith in Jesus. As each and every one of us that have believed the gospel and devoted our lives to His glory, we are to go forth into the world full of the Holy Spirit and minister the Word of God in power as He leads. This is how God is glorified, as we abide in Jesus, we will bear fruit for the glory and pleasure of the Father.

B. God is not looking for these megaliths of exalted works of man’s hands to do His work. That may be hard for you to receive but consider it prayerfully.

C. Look at what the institutions do. Look at their fruit through the Holy Spirit and discern.

D. I marvel that the founders and leaders of such things as CBN, a supposed Christian TV enterprise, how there are so many questionable things involved that deny Jesus? How can it be possible when Pat Robertson posed for TIME Magazine that he was photographed making a Freemason hand signal? Have you ever appeared making a Freemason secret society hand signal in a photograph?
TIME Magazine Cover: Pat Robertson giving "Devil's Claw" Freemason Signal--- February 17,1986

E. I am convinced that as Satan tempted Jesus Christ with glory and self-exaltation and power, Satan has successfully tempted many supposed Christian leaders and put them on pedestals.
The Temptation of Jesus: His Followers shall go through the same trials and sufferings. Matthew 4

F. If you look at some of the biggest and most influential leaders in Christendom, you will find many statements and actions that are opposite the Word of God and ways of Jesus.

G. The magic of language used by the magicians....
Watch and listen. Discern prayerfully. Do not be deceived. Take heed to yourselves.
I have encouraged you to listen to what people say because often they will give themselves away for what they truly are. Their true heart is revealed in the words they speak and they reveal their self-agendas, self-seeking desires and lusts. Often, they will say something but you think they did not mean to say that and excuse it...ignoring what they actually said! Careful. That is the idea behind rhetoric.

H. I was listening to a man who professes faith in Jesus and says he is a ministry state that he was going to live like the Lord was coming today, but, plan for the next hundred years. We have all heard this semantic. But, it reveals he is still planning and thinking and dreaming of his own self-grandeur ideas.

James the apostle said, 'If it be the will of God...we will do this or that'... All planning and statements to the contrary are ungodly ways rebuked by James.
James 4:13-16 13Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain: 14Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. 15For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that. 16But now ye rejoice in your boastings: all such rejoicing is evil.

Therefore, if it be God's will, we will do this or that...
We do not know what will be. We are reliant and compliant to Him. We do not know how long each of us has. So, be careful to show your submission and humility that you are serving Him and not the other way around. And do not follow others who are not following the Lord. Follow the leader—Jesus.

I. I believe this is another way of seeing whether someone serves themselves or the Lord. Listen to the speech. Watch the behaviors. They both exhibit the heart. God would not have any of us be deceived. So be wise therefore, be wise in the Lord and discern.
